how far the demo lets you play to? Can you do multiplayer with the demo?

I don't know. I played the opening level, and I was hooked.

I got first place on the leaderboards in several levels. I'm sure they've been wiped out by now as the game has been gaining popularity. I've seen you in a few top ten spots also, Killa.

I haven't found it to be a very difficult game. If you were good at Marble Madness, this shouldn't be too difficult for you. There are a lot of shortcuts you can take to reach the goals. An easy way to squeeze your way through bumpers is by holding the right thumbstick so that you see everything from above. You can jump over bumpers, too.

So far, all of my times are well under par. I'm on level 38, but I need to finish up some work. I'll pick it up again tomorrow. I still gotta check out multiplayer.

Well, if you like the old marble madness. Im pretty sure you'll enjoy this one. The multiplayer is actually pretty fun to. Wish they would have had a couple of more lvls but the are still fun. Anything with the ice in the lvls screws me up bad. This game brings back memories for sure. I remember throwing my old nintendo control a couple times for marble madness. I wanted to throw my 360 control a bunch to but I cant afford another right now. I wish they would invent unbreakable controls. That would rock.

^ The trick to the ice levels is spinning the marble in the direction you want to go as soon as you hit the jump button (L trigger or A). As you land, immediately jump again and spin the marble again in the direction you want to travel. The less time your marble spends on that slippery surface means the more control you have over it. Don't forget: you can use your boost thingy (when it's full is best) in the middle of a jump to gain a little extra height.

I received Marble Blast Gold with my Mac Mini so I knew exactly what I could expect from this game. This game is pretty much the same as Marble Blast Gold with improved graphics and new boards. There are some things in this game that are visually pleasing such as the glass walls, the ice, the light reflection, and the skate park level. For what it is the graphics are really good. The gameplay is awesome. I downloaded this last night and played it for the next 4 hours until I needed to hit the sack. This is game is well worth the cost. I would recommend this game over any other Live Arcade game (except maybe Geometry Wars.)
